Moringa Olelifera(DRUM STICK) It's Homeopathic Uses

Moringa oleifera belonging to the family of Moringaceae is an
effective remedy for malnutrition. Moringa is rich in nutrition owing to
the presence of a variety of essential phytochemicals present in its
leaves, pods and seeds. In fact, moringa is said to provide 7 times more
vitamin C than oranges, 10 times more vitamin A than carrots, 17 times
more calcium than milk, 9 times more protein than yoghurt, 15 times more
potassium than bananas and 25 times more iron than spinach .
The fact that moringa is easily cultivable makes it a sustainable
remedy for malnutrition. Countries like Senegal and Benin treat children
with moringa .
Children deprived of breast milk tend to show symptoms of malnutrition.
Lactogogues are generally prescribed to lactating mothers to augment
milk production. The lactogogue, made of phytosterols, acts as a
precursor for hormones required for reproductive growth. Moringa is rich
in phytosterols like stigmasterol, sitosterol and kampesterol which are
precursors for hormones. These compounds increase the estrogen
production, which in turn stimulates the proliferation of the mammary
gland ducts to produce milk. It is used to treat malnutrition in
children younger than 3 years .
About 6 spoonfuls of leaf powder can meet a woman's daily iron and
calcium requirements, during pregnancy. This study provides an overview
on the cultivation, nutritional values, medicinal properties for
commercial use and pharmacological properties of moringa. There are no
elaborate reports on treatment of diabetes and cancer using moringa.
This study aims to bridge the gap.
